Ratty Designs was founded in Nagano, Japan with the goal of supporting startups and small businesses by providing high-standard, affordable, and cost-efficient design services to build their brand and market their products and services. We pledge to provide a first-rate service so that our customers can focus on what they do best. We hope our work will drive our customers to success.

Open source software: We solely use Free/Libre Open Source software (FLOSS) (as opposed to proprietary software such as graphics software by Adobe and QuarkXPress) in creating our work as we believe it is the ethical option. We encourage all businesses, particularly startups and one-person shops to use open source software not only because they are available completely free of charge, but also because they offer better security, reliability, and more freedom. If you are interested in learning more about open source software, please see below for a list of resources.

Veganism: We are a vegan business that aims to end all animal exploitation and suffering. We support vegan businesses by offering special discount on all of our services. Please contact us for further details.
